Scopes

[Truckman031]

I am looking at 2 scopes, and I need some advice. I am looking at a new Zeiss Conquest 3x9x50 for $514. Or I can buy a Leupold LPS 4x14x52 from a friend. He is selling the Leupold for $500. I now these are 2 different mags. but which one would you choose? I hunt both woods and fields. I am also buying a new rifle, either a Remmington 700 CDL 7 mag or a Ruger M77 7 mag. How much are the Rugers going for these days? If I can find a good deal, I'll buy the Ruger, but if not I'll buy the 700.

 

Thanks for anyhelp.

Either one is a good quality scope. The zeiss optics in my opinion are a little better than the leupold but on the whole both are about equal. In the end I would probally buy the leupold and help out a friend. I dont know about their respective warranty but I dont think your buddy is going to warranty his.

Good Luck

Leupold wins hands down IMO.

 

It's been a looooong time since I was in the firearms business, but I was always partial to Ruger and Browning with respect to high power rifles. So, even if you have to save a little more or wait a little longer for the Ruger, I would.

 

Just my 2 cents.
